Quotes About Mooncalves

Foo-foo the First, King of the Mooncalves!
~ Mark Twain
Stephen writhed his neck round, directing a grim look at the young man: all his professional life ashore had been haunted by these vile messengers; innumerable concerts, theatres, operas, dinners, promised treats had been wrecked or interrupted by fools, mooncalves, who, to gain some private end, had broken a leg, had fits, or fallen into a catalepsy.
~ Patrick O'Brian
